This is not a story about an ordinary couple out on a normal date at Lavo in the Palazzo.

Actor Eddie Cibrian took his wife Brandi out on the town last night, and our contributing photographer Denise Truscello was invited to capture these great exclusive photos: hand-holding, kissing and smiling shots! All looks happy in the land of love and honeymoon heaven, right?

Eddie Cibrian and his wife Brandi share a kiss for the cameras at Lavo.

In recent weeks, Eddie hit the headlines as “the other man” in the supposed broken romance for country queen LeAnn Rimes, and a snatched snap of them kissing was blamed for the bust-up of her marriage. Eddie and LeAnn said they’d been filming a scene for a Lifetime movie, and the shot had been leaked to have tabloid papers run with a story of their alleged affair.

Suddenly, Eddie and Brandi surfaced here and early this morning were still partying on the town. I’m not being cynical on tax day, but doesn’t it seem just a tad bit questionable that only days after very loud denials of the alleged fling, they’d be out so publicly posing to show all is well?

LeAnn starred with Eddie in Northern Lights, which was broadcast on Lifetime on March 12. The 27-year-old singer married dancer Dean Sheremet in Dallas in 2002, and recent rumors have dogged him, which led to the recent headlines of their breakup.

LeAnn was in town two weekends ago and performed a free downtown concert at Fremont Street Experience. She also walked the red carpet at MGM Grand for the Academy of Country Music Awards and the salute to George Strait.

I’m unaware of any public comments about LeAnn and Dean’s current marital status. No doubt there will be more to come on this juicy gem, but meantime feel free to write your own captions!
